TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible Causes Solutions

Ice has bad taste or odor. Water supply contains minerals such as

sulfur.

A water ﬁ lter may need to be installed to eliminate

taste and odor problems.

NOTE: In some cases, a ﬁ lter may not help. It may

not be possible to remove all minerals / odor / taste

in all water supplies.

Icemaker was recently installed. Discard the ﬁ rst few batches of ice to avoid

discolored or bad tasting ice.

Ice has been stored for too long. Ice that has been stored for too long will shrink,

become cloudy, and may develop a stale taste.

Throw away old ice and make a new supply.

The food has not been stored properly in

either compartment.

Rewrap the food. Odors may migrate to the ice if

food is not wrapped properly.

The interior of the refrigerator needs to be

cleaned.

See the Care and Cleaning section for more

information.

The ice storage bin needs to be cleaned. Empty and wash the bin (discard old cubes). Make

sure that the bin is completely dry before reinstalling

it.

Dispensing warm water. Refrigerator was recently installed. Allow 24 hours after installation for the water

storage tank to cool completely.

The water dispenser has been used recently

and the storage tank was exhausted.

Depending on your speciﬁ c model, the water

storage capacity will range from approximately

600 ~ 900 ml.

Dispenser has not been used for several

hours.

If the dispenser has not been used for several hours,

the ﬁ rst glass dispensed may be warm. Discard the

ﬁ rst 300 ml.

Refrigerator is connected to the hot water

supply.

Make sure that the refrigerator is connected to a

cold water pipe.

WARNING: Connecting the refrigerator to a hot

water line may damage the icemaker.

Water ﬁ lter has been exhausted. It is recommended that you replace the water ﬁ lter:

Approximately every 6 months.•

When the water ﬁ lter indicator turns on.•

When the water dispenser output decreases. •

When the ice cubes are smaller than normal.•

Refrigerator was recently installed. Dispense 10 liters of water (ﬂ ush for approximately

5 minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminates

from the system. Do not dispense the entire 10

liter amount continuously. Depress and release the

dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and 60

seconds OFF.

Icemaker is making too

much ice.

Icemaker shutoff (arm/sensor) is obstructed. Empty the ice bin. If your icemaker is equipped

with an ice shutoff arm, make sure that the arm

moves freely. If your icemaker is equipped with the

electronic ice shutoff sensor, make sure that there

is a clear path between the two sensors. Reinstall

the ice bin and wait 24 hours to conﬁ rm proper

operation.
